    Foodie Locker — smart insulated lockers for food delivery and collection

    Smart Campus Lockers

    Collection points across the campus for food and drinks.

    Better Student Experience

    For students in halls and those commuting in.

    Beyond Canteen Hours

    Access to food when catering outlets have closed.

    Local Food Partners

    Connect students with local outlets and suppliers.

    The Problem

    Campus food provision stops when the canteen does.

    Canteens and catering outlets close early, while students are still on site. Commuters and evening students are left with little on-campus choice — and without a designated point, riders crowd student entrances.

    • 01

      Limited hours

      food provision ends when the last canteen or outlet closes.

    • 02

      Crowded entrances

    • 04

      unescorted visitors inside residences and faculty buildings.

      Missed orders

      students in lectures or labs when food arrives.

    The Solution

    One designated collection point for every food order.

    Elevates the student experience

    Students order from local partners and collect between classes with a one-time code — no queues, no waiting outside.

    Complements your catering

    Lockers extend the day beyond canteen and outlet hours, so food provision keeps working after the kitchen closes.

    Brings students together

    A shared collection point in the square, atrium or union becomes a campus landmark that supports community and local partnerships.

    What's in it for your campus

    More than lockers — a student amenity that works for your team.

    Foodie Locker delivers everyday value to students, removes friction for your on-site team and strengthens campus security from day one — with the optional upside of ancillary income through our wider ecosystem.

    Keeps campus entrances clear

    Couriers stay at the locker, not in halls, libraries or faculty buildings. Every drop-off is logged, authenticated and audit-ready from day one.

    Frees up your on-site team

    Lockers handle food and grocery drop-offs end-to-end — removing the daily burden from reception, security and front-of-house, saving labour cost.

    Perks & offers for students

    Exclusive food brand offers and student-only promotions — a tangible amenity that boosts satisfaction and belonging.

    Ready-made content for your team

    Campaigns, creative and assets your team can push through existing social, email and app channels.

    Optional: new ancillary income

    Selected campuses can also participate in our commercial ecosystem and earn a share of ancillary revenue — subject to qualification and availability. You stay in control of what runs on your campus.
